About this episode

Enterprise SEO teams waste resources on ineffective LLM.txt files instead of proven protocols. Duane Forrester, former Bing search engineer and founder of UnboundAnswers.com, explains why major crawlers including AI systems still follow established robots.txt standards. The discussion covers proper robots.txt syntax implementation, the default crawl behavior that eliminates need for "do crawl" directives, and strategic resource allocation between technical infrastructure and content quality initiatives.
